Well it's my day on the Polar Bear Plunge blog hop run by Joan of Moose Stash quilting. Well I just wish it was a bit cold here over the last few weeks I have been melting and we haven't hit the hot part of summer yet.
AnywayI decided to make the Snowflake Cushion from The Pillow Pop book. I have had some old linen that I got from a friends mum years ago ,this piece was sewn to make a skirt, and went through the stash and found what I wanted.
The little petals were drawn onto interfacing then sewn to the petal fabric and turned through, it's a great method. Then the whole lot were sewn down with a tiny blanket stitch the front and back sewn together after the zip is inserted. Everything from my stash so I'm happy. Thanks for popping in.

I like your pillow - well put together and the colors are perfect.
Thank you for your comment
Lovely pillow, and how great that you could sew from your stash.
Your pillow is so pretty! It would work equally as well for a winter or a beach theme!
That is awesome. Elizabeth was right when she said it was perfect for winter and beach themes. Thanks for playing along in the Polar Bear Plunge with us. It's hard to think of winter, when your in the midst of summer where you are, I'm sure. But you nailed it! :-)
Beautiful pillow! It is so cold here; I would love some of the warmth you are having....
The pillow is pretty.
I love this snowflake pillow and the beautiful blues you chose! Doing the interfacing thing and turning those inside out is definitely the best way to make them. It looks very cozy with the other pillows. Thanks for sharing, Lianne!
I love your snowflake pillow! Thanks for sharing!
Love your snowflake pillow! I love those blues. Thanks for sharing!
I haven't made anything like petals or snowflakes using interfacing, but now I wlll add it to the toolbox, and in time make a few. Thanks Lianne
With your coloration I think beach first-or maybe I’m just ready for the beach weather!
Great colors for your 'petal' pillow
